that makes him so popular ? I've just read the record of bills he has co-sponsored or sponsored. It reads like a list of restriction, oppression and appropriation.

He's done nothing of true noteworthy law making.

What does his district get from him ? Not much.

Why do they keep voting in such an extreme, unapologetic, unrepenetent racist ? Do they realize how this makes THEM look to the rest of the nation ?

I don't get it.

or would be a representative sample for Kings District,yah they are mostly Germanic by ethnic standard,and they mostly attend the new right wing Lutheran Church. They seem to be anti everything that makes Society great.

northwest Iowa may be one of the few places in the country where a Steve King could win.

There was talk of King running for governor a few years back, buT I think the party feared if he ran statewide he would lead Repugs to third place even if they were unopposed.
